Hey
Wait a minute
Hey

I said baby
I love the way that you hold Me
And you touch me like you know Me
See I don't want nobody Else
And I, I'm bout' to Offer All I can give Him
Cause I'm a slave to his Rhythm
I said I just can't help Myself

Cause baby I love ya'
And I Trust ya'
You don't have to worry bout' Nothing
Oh I'm alive right now, Look at me
And I want ya'
No I need ya'
And I'll do anything to please ya'
I just want you to take control of Me (take control)

I said Hey! (hey)

And anything you need, I wanna bring it to you Baby

I said Baby
I got to tell you how much I love It
The way you kiss my neck in Public
I try my best not to Blush
Even when, An argument comes Around
You take the time to break it Down
And you're never ever in a Rush
(Never never never, ever never Nev-er!)
Hook:

And I'm Scared, And I'm Nervous
Trying is always worth It

Cuz everything I`m feelin all depends on you
You make me feel better

That makes you the illest thing around

Oh, u got me right

It`s like you got me on a roller-coaster
I wanna get off
But I ain`t supposed to
I hate to love you

I hate to love u

You`re treatin me real bad
And it works everytime
Just when I think about leavin you
Switchin up it`s like you read my mind
And I should know better
Cuz even when I say I`m thorugh
At the end of the day
No matter what I say
You know that I`m runnin back to you

[chorus]
Sometimes it's gonna be days like this
sometimes it's gonna be rain like this
sometimes you're gonna feel pain like this
sometimes you gotta work hard for it

because when u feeling low
and u cant get no lower
thats when u know your close
sometimes u gotta work hard for it

woke up in the morning
it's another cloudy day
but that never mattered too much to me
cause its still a new beginning
and I know I got it in me
had my share of ups and downs
but now I know I can do anything

some people think im aggressive
cause I know what I want
but that never mattered too much to me

show me some body with no goal
show me some body with no control
cause life is for living
so go and get it
when times get rough remember

[chorus]
Sometimes it's gonna be days like this
sometimes it's gonna be rain like this
sometimes you're gonna feel pain like this
sometimes you gotta work hard for it


because when u feeling low
and u can't get no lower
thats when u know your close
sometimes u gotta work hard for it

ohh gotta get it
hey hey hey
sometimes the road may seem too far
you never really know for sure
if you're ever gonna make it
sometimes the end may seem so far
you never really know for sure
if u got the strength to make it

but u gotta remember

[chorus]
Sometimes it's gonna be days like this
sometimes it's gonna be rain like this
sometimes you're gonna feel pain like this
sometimes you gotta work hard for it

because when u feeling low
and u can't get no lower
thats when u know your close
sometimes u gotta work hard for it

days like this
rain like this

do it cause I love it
feel like this
gotta work hard for it

{Intro-lude}
It's hard for me to say this,
but I got a crush on you.

Come on!!!

{Verse 1}
I wish I could taste your love, lick it off of my fingertips,
Boy what ya doing to me.
I wish I could save your kiss, for some other girl to taste,
To see the expressions on her face.

{Bridge}
Whenever you are near me,
There's no other place I'd rather be.
You're like a star that can't be reached,
So near but so far,
You are...

{Chorus}
I need your arms around me,
Please let me be your everything,
I'll be your girl for just tonight,
Boy don't you know you are my *Crush*

{Verse 2}
I wish I could wear your touch, like pumps when I'm dressing up,
Without you I'm incomplete.
I wish I could steal you boy, lock you up and throw away the key,
Cause you're the only one for me.

{Bridge}


Whenever you are near me,
There's no other place I'd rather be.
You're like a star that can't be reached,
So near but so far,
You are...

{Chorus}
I need your arms around me,
Please let me be your everything,
I'll be your girl for just tonight,
Boy don't you know you are my *Crush*

{Verse 3}
(I want this sometimes) I wonder could you ever feel the same.
(I get lost in your arms) Nothing else to see, because there's no-one here but me & you.

{Chorus}
I need your arms around me (You know it feels right)
Please let me be your everything (I know it feels right),
I'll be your girl for just tonight (Boy let me know),
Boy don't you know you are my *Crush* (Oh Yeah-Yeah-Yeah)

{Chorus}
I need your arms around me (I need your arms around me),
Please let me be your everything (So let me be your everything),
I'll be your girl for just tonight (For just tonight),
Boy don't you know you are my *Crush* (Boy! you are my...)

{Outro}
Ah Ah Ah Ahhhhhhhhhhhh
Ah Ah Ah Ahhhhhhhhhhhh
Ah Ah Ah Ahhhhhhhhhhhh

You're so sexy
Heaven help me please
I need to get my mind right
And it's so hard because
You're so incredible
Those lips of yours so luscious
I just wanna bite
And I could do that all night

(Sexy gloss, Matte or Frost)
Don't matter cause it's coming off
You're so sexy, I can't help myself
(Ruby Red, Pink Champagne)
Don't matter cause it ends the same
Never lasting when I get to you

Crazy crazy wonderful
Can you really feel it?
Uh oh oh
I wanna be your cherry kiss
You can put your lips like this
Crazy crazy wonderful
Can you really feel it?
Uh oh oh
I wanna kiss you all the time
That's how I go through lipstick

Cocoa lover
I can't get used to how you make me feel
I just wanna get where you are (???)
Unequivocal the way they move
So wet and smooth
I keep coming back
I can't get enough no

(Sexy gloss, Matte or Frost)


Don't matter cause it's coming off
You're so sexy, I can't help myself
(Ruby Red, Pink Champagne)
My lipstick always ends the same
Never lasting when I get to you

Crazy crazy wonderful
Can you really feel it?
Uh oh oh
I wanna be your cherry kiss
You can put your lips like this
Crazy crazy wonderful
Can you really feel it?
Uh oh oh
I wanna kiss you all the time
That's how I go through lipstick

Cause you got me so
So, so, so, so, so crazy
Ooh and you just so
So, so, so, so, so wonderful
It's so crazy wonderful

Crazy crazy wonderful
Can you really feel it?
Uh oh oh
I wanna be your cherry kiss
You can put your lips like this
Crazy crazy wonderful
Can you really feel it?
Uh oh oh
I wanna kiss you all the time
That's how I go through lipstick
Repeat x2

So, so, so, so crazy

Want you to turn the lights off...me on

[Spoken:]
Hey...I know its been a minute...I'm ready

Want you to try to relax...close your eyes
Don't act like you're so surprised
Feel the silk against your skin
Let the games begin

Don't waste time come get me right now
Don't worry 'bout a thing it's 'bout to go down
Don't be scared nobody's around
We've waited so long
It's about to go down

Cause your so
Sexual
That's what you are
Sensual
Ooh you're looking so
Beautiful
It's about to go down
Me and you

Now we're about to take off
It's on
Pressures growing
Going strong
Hold me close and don't let go
Inhibitions out the door
One...judge...no
Tell me what you dream of

I'm everything you thought I was

Don't waste time come get me right now
Don't worry 'bout a thing it's 'bout to go down
Don't be scared nobody's around
We've waited so long

Cause your so

Ooh...That's what you are
Sensual
Can you hear the sound?
Beautiful
It's about to go down
Me and you

Don't waste time come get me right now

Sensual
And you're looking so
Beautiful
It's about to go down
Me and you

You're so

I can see it in your eyes
you don't love me
and though you tried to hide
hide it from me
I know i can see the truth
so easy to love you in the beginning
and so easy to play the fool
cuz i was willing
but it's over now

when loving you was easy
when loving you was easy
tried to make it hard for me
still i stuck around
i was set on loving you
and no matter what you did
i stuck through it

when loving you was easy
why'd you make it harder
why'd you make it hard for me
when i stuck around
wishing that you'd would come around
oh, you made it easy for me to leave you

it could have been so easy cuz
my heart was easy to give ya
like second nature
lovin you was systematic
like i was an addict
it hurt me but i couldn't get enough
it's like you hated me around
but when i left you couldn't stand it
and you needed me around
but i can't take the ups and downs
it's one thing that i found
i gotta get over you

when loving you was easy
when loving you was easy


tried to make it hard for me
when i stuck around
hopin that you'd come around
and no matter what you did
i stuck through it

when loving you was easy
so why'd you make it harder
why'd you make it hard for me
when i stuck around
wishing that you'd come around
cuz now you made it easy for me to leave you

i gave you everything i had
didn't ask you for anything that i didn't give you myself
if you didn't want to say (hey hey)
that was all you had to say
cuz although i used to love you
and need you
you knew that i knew we couldn't last for long
and i didn't mean to bring the choir to let you know you were wrong

when loving you was easy
when loving you was easy
ya tried to make it hard for me
when i stuck around
hopin that you'd come around
and no matter what you did
i stuck through it all

when loving you was easy
why'd you make it harder
why'd you make it hard for me
and i stuck around
wishing that you'd come around (but i'm tired now)
and that's why i'm leavin you

i'm leavin you
i'm leavin you

[Verse 1]
Lonely days and lonely nights are waiting for me
But I gotta leave
From the day rise up until the night falls down
I'm losin myself, so I can't stay around

[Hook]
I'm still the girl that you met, you called me perfect
But now you're changin' I'm not good enough anymore
So I did it for us, I wanted to keep your love
You tried to mold me
And I thought that I would please you more

[Chorus]
You want me to be what you want me to be
But you can't
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
I tried my best to be your everything
But you can't
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over

Oh Ohhh

[Verse 2]
I close my eyes and memorize the girl that I was
Before there was us
Hard to remember, it's been so long since she's been around
I gave up myself, and still
I let you down

[Hook]
I'm still the girl that you met, you called me perfect
But now you're changin' I'm not good enough anymore
So I did it for us, I wanted to keep your love
You tried to mold me
And I thought that I would please you more

[Chorus]
You want me to be what you want me to be
But you can't
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
I tried my best to be your everything
But you can't
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over

Oh Ohh

[Bridge]
I must have fought for your heart
If it was mine from the start
Your love's conditional
Mine I let you have for free
You had a price to your love, and gladly I gave it up
And now there's nothing left
Because I let you change all of me

[Chorus]
You want me to be what you want me to be
But you can't
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
I tried my best to be your everything
But you can't
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over

Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh

You know what they say
that everything in your life
brings you to where you are today
I know what they mean
cuz even with all the bad
I wouldn't change a thing
Cuz it lead me to you
and if one thing was different
i know you'd be missing
so there's no regrets
i can only thank god
for the day that we met

somebody up there must love me
cuz he gave me you and that's why
somebody up there must love me
yes i know in my heart and i'll try
to give you love
to give you everything you need
you don't even know how much you've given to me so
somebody up there must love me
cuz he gave me you and that's why

now i' would be lying if i said
that love wasn't trying
it hasn't always been a piece of cake
we had mistakes to make
ups and downs
but we always came around
and we're still here (we ain't goin nowhere)
we stuck together longer
that's what made us stronger
and there's no regrets
i can only thank god
for the day that we met

somebody up there must love me
cuz he gave me you and that's why


somebody up there must love me
yes i know in my heart that i'll try
to give you love
to give you everything you need
you don't even know how much you've given to me so

cuz he gave me

and it feels so good babe
to know that you love me

somebody up there must love me
cuz he gave me you and that's why
somebody up there must love me

Oh, been trying to let it go
Trying to keep my eyes closed
Trying to keep it just like before
The times we never even thought to speak
Don't wanna tell you what it is
Oh wee it felt so serious
Got me thinking just too much
I wanna set it off, but

It's this 1 thing that's got me trippin
It's this 1 thing that's got me trippin (you did)
This 1 thing my soul may be feeling
It's this 1 thing you did oh oh
It's this 1 thing that caught me slippin
It's this 1 thing I want to admit it
This 1 thing and I was so with it
It's this 1 thing you did oh oh

Hey, we don't know each other well
So what? I keep thinking to myself
Memories just keep ringing bells
Oh oh, Oh oh, Oh
Hear voices I don't want to understand
My car keys are jingling in my hand
My high heels a clicking towards your door
Oh oh, Oh oh, Oh

It's this 1 thing that's got me trippin
It's this 1 thing that's got me trippin (you did)
This 1 thing my soul may be feeling
It's this 1 thing you did oh oh
It's this 1 thing that's caught me slippin
It's this 1 thing I want to admit it
This 1 thing and I was so with it
It's this 1 thing you did oh oh

Maybe I just can't believe it
It's this one thing you did oh oh
I can deny and try ,try and do it long enough just to keep from seein'
I'm hoping you can keep a secret
For me
But what you did, yeah

It's this 1 thing that's got me trippin
It's this 1 thing that's got me trippin (you did)
This 1 thing my soul may be feeling
It's this 1 thing you did oh oh

It's this 1 thing I want to admit it
This 1 thing and I was so with it
It's this 1 thing you did oh oh

It's this 1 thing that's got me trippin
It's this 1 thing that's got me trippin (you did)
This 1 thing my soul may be feeling
It's this 1 thing you did oh oh
It's this 1 thing that's caught me slippin
It's this 1 thing I want to admit it
This 1 thing and I was so with it
It's this 1 thing you did oh oh

Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh

For all nations
New combination
DJ Kore Phoenix EMC
And the girl Amerie
One thing for sure...
It's Rai'n'b fever

I see you in the crowd
Look over my shoulder
Maybe I'll tell you now
Tell you that it's over
I know you wanna talk
You call my phone 3 times
But I can't take you now,
Yes I've made up my mind

No! I won't take you back
I gave you many chances
No! I won't change my mind
Can't you understand it?
No! You can't come back home
Under no circumstances
Yes, c'est la vie I'm wrong
Ain't no second chances

REFRAIN
Nananananana nananananana
Losin' you is so easy to do
Nananananana nananananana
Losin' you was the best thing that happen to me

They say you've tried to change
Give you just one more chance
I know you'll stay the same
Sick and tired of girl lies
I used to press you
And I didn't see the sign
But I can't take you now,
Yes I've made up my mind

No! I won't take you back
I gave you many chances
No! I won't change my mind
Can't you understand it?
No! You can't come back home
Under no circumstances
Yes, c'est la vie I'm wrong
Ain't no second chances

REFRAIN

But now you know that this is over
And it's not something you get over
So when you are all alone
Remember how it felt to hold me.

REFRAIN
